I liked how each suite had a sitting room inbetween the "oasis" central area and the bedrooms - I bet it cut down on a lot of extra noise. The central oasis was a lot of fun and kept the kids contained and happy. The staff went out of their way to help us with our requests. The only negative thing I can think of was the sausage at the continental breakfast was served ice cold. But there were other things to eat.

We were in Tampa during a cold, rainy few days and having a comfortable suite with two TVs and a sofa, kitchen, table, etc made the stay so much nicer and bearable. Everything at Oasis Bay Suites in remodeled and done very nicely. It feels new and was kept very clean. The breakfasts were different each day. On the first, it was very minimal with no sausage or bacon. On the second day, there were eggs, sausage, and bacon, and a better variety of other choices, including yogurt. I have no idea why this was so variable. They didn't advertise a lift, but there are three around the facility. We were very pleased with our stay and would recommend it.

Not worth the cheap stay you wont be able to sleep

Checking in she asked us if we could want to upgrade to a king bed we said no we will stick to two queen beds. We get our keys and the women tells us how to go around to get to our room. We leave the lobby get into our car to go where she told us to go. We park and unload, turns out all the gates are locked and the only way to get to our room is to go through the lobby which she never said. We load the car up again and go around to the lobby to walk to the other side of the hotel to our room. We finally get to our room and behold we have just a king bed. It was already late and we drove a long time so my wife said that our daughter can sleep on the pull out couch. We get settled and are about to take showers and it turns out there was only one towel. So I went back to the lobby and ask for towels. I was told that it would be ten minutes before she could grab towels for us. I said no problem went out to my car and came back. Waited almost 20 mins then she returned with towels and I wasn’t the only guest waiting for towels either. If you want a quiet hotel this isn’t the place for you. They are playing music in the common area in the middle of the hotel all night so you will heard it all night. They also have a light outside of the slider that’s in the room that will not turnoff all night that will make your room very bright all night. Now I know why the deal was so cheap. Jokes on me n my family I guess. Oh and the stay was 10 dollars more than they said it was suppose to be.

The staff was extremely friendly. Check in and check out was very easy. Located close to restaurants and Busch Gardens. The free breakfast was pretty decent. I would definitely stay there again.

We were under the impression this was a new hotel but maybe it’s just under new management. The property needs a lot of work, the drop ceiling in the outdoor bathroom was completely missing and the bathroom itself looked scary, the gym was being used as storage but still open to use, there was a bunchbof random things in it like a pink kids bike and materials for construction. The check in process took over 20 minutes because “the system wasn’t updating” so they couldn’t find a room for us, the girl had to go check the rooms herself to see which one had 2 beds to accommodate us. The room described 2 queen beds but they were actually 2 full size beds which makes a big difference when traveling as a family of 4. The toilet seat in the room was very scraped like it had been dragged through concrete before being installed. The breakfast was completely cold because they didn’t turn on the heated serving dishes so the bacon and sausage was being served uncooked. I was fooled by how nice the property looked on Instagram, I guess the best thing they have is their social media manager.
